78. Why Most People Fail at Delusional Manifesting (And How to Succeed)

Send us a text

This week’s episode of The Universe Is Your Friend dives into a topic that’s been on my mind ever since I shared my episode about delusional manifesting. If you’ve been around manifestation content for a while, you know this concept sparks a LOT of opinions. People either swear by it like it’s the holy grail, or drag it like it’s the most toxic mindset of all time.

Here’s the thing: delusional manifesting isn’t inherently good or bad. It’s simply a tool. And like any tool, it works differently depending on who’s holding it. The people who thrive with it are usually deeply self-aware, emotionally resilient, and consistent in their beliefs. The ones who struggle with it — myself included at times — often forget that living in the end isn’t just a one-time decision. It’s a daily choice.

So what is delusional manifesting? At its core, it’s about believing in your bones that your desire is already yours. It’s acting, speaking, thinking, and living from the version of you who already has what you want. It’s creating such a strong sense of certainty, that when your manifestation arrives, you think: of course this happened.

But here’s the catch most people don’t talk about: being delusional in this way requires a fortress of unwavering belief. You have to stand strong in your faith, especially when your 3D reality shows you the opposite.

If you take anything from this episode, let it be this: you’ll have moments where you’re sure your manifestation is about to land, and then it doesn’t. In those moments, you cannot flinch. You cannot spiral into disappointment and set up camp there. Yes, it’s okay to feel sad or frustrated. It’s okay to cry, journal, process. But once you’ve felt it? You have to get back on the horse and return to your belief.

In this episode, I’ll guide you through those moments when your faith gets rocked, how to recognise desperation in your manifestation practice, and how to once again trust The Universe. I’ll share why it’s not about toxic positivity or ignoring your human emotions, but about allowing yourself to feel fully, then choosing to return to your belief with even greater strength.

Because here’s the truth: people who manifest delusionally don’t have a secret gene that makes belief effortless. They just know this work requires daily, intentional commitment. Their job isn’t to control the how or the when — it’s to embody the version of themselves who already has it, no matter what.

Because the truth is: delusional manifesting can change your life. But only if you understand how to hold the belief and keep going when it feels impossible.
